With iOS 7 still in its beta phase, iCreate issue 123 reveals how you can Get iOS 7 Now. This new issue of iCreate, on shelves from July 25, reveals the apps that give you iOS 7 functionality today, the apps that already have the cool iOS 7 look, some of the Jailbreak options that could make your device behave like it runs iOS 7 (should you wish to go down that route) and how to get your device ready for iOS 7 in preparation for the new mobile OS.

What’s more, Get iOS 7 Now will show you how to access to developer beta from Apple. It’s an expensive path to take and not one free of potential perils since the iOS 7 beta is not intended for public use (it’s intended for developers so they can test how their apps behave and give Apple feedback), but it’s an option you can pursue if you wish and we walk you through it.

Elsewhere in iCreate 123 we show you how to get ready for Mavericks by preparing your Mac for OS X 10.9, how to turn your photos into works of art, and master vector drawing with Pixelmator. We also explore the iOS 7 effect and how it could influence the design of the Mac OS in the future. Find out what app developers and UI designers think of the two operating systems merging closer together.
